    Drawing is an important, everyday hobby to Mikko Takkinen. In the exhibition at Comics Gallery!, works of art by Takkinen illustrating landscapes and characters can be seen.

The Oulu Comics Center has panels for every day to look, to read, to borrow, to buy and to draw. In the Comics Library, Sarjasto, you can experience panel filled moments and marvel on the spot or borrow and take home. Street art brings a riot of colors to the streets and fairways. The Oulu Comics Festival fills the city with panels once again in this year. The festival is the largest annual comics event in the arctic region. The capital of Northern Comics is a lively and inspiring meeting place in the field of comics culture. This site offers a lot of information about Oulu region’s, northern Finland’s and Arctic region’s comics.
